The piping and the materials used.

Mugen is bottlenecked 60mm

Hytech is 2.5 straight through

Hytech comes with that cool Renault metal-core cat does it not?

I think that's an optional piece. A worthwhile piece for only $100 more though (at least that's what hitechex posted on the last hytech related thread ...)

The Renault cat alone is upwards of $600. So, it is an excellent option with the Hytech system.

The HyTech is 2.5" all the way from the header, including inside the muffler. To my knowledge the Mugen has a bottleneck right after the cat(to maintain the temp in the cat to increase efficiency of the cat), I think that there is one inside the primary resonator, and the piping inside the twin loop muffler goes down to ~2".
